Thanksgiving in Chaiyaphum

This was our spread for Thanksgiving at Momma’s. From left, it’s me, Keith, Nathan, Picot, Brittany, Leigh, Jade, Kendra, and Olwynn. That’s 9 of the 12 farang in Chaiyaphum all at the same table. Don’t worry, that happens a lot here.

There’s Joel cooking up his stuffing on a giant wok in the kitchen at Momma’s.

Our Thanksgiving feast doubled as a 25th birthday party for Jade, which helps to explain why there are so many bottles of liquor on the table (and why Jade is wearing that tiara and those incredibly cool Spider-Man gloves, which were a gift from Keith and Olwynn).

The woman waving to the camera at the end of the table is Momma herself.
